Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] [Bug 1033] New: Crash when "Following TCP Stream" in large pack

           Summary: Crash when "Following TCP Stream" in large packets
           Product: Wireshark
           Version: 0.99.0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Medium
         Component: Wireshark
        AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: oscar+wiresharkbugzilla@xxxxxxxxxxx


To recreate:
 -Open the attached capture file (it is just a "large" (300000 characters,
~250K) HTTP GET request, the server returns nothing).
 -Try to "Follow TCP stream".
 -Ethereal crashes.

# ethereal
The program 'ethereal' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
  (Details: serial 99850 error_code 1 request_code 120 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
